My speculation:

- PSB don't usually say that from their albums or not easily: We can expect a really good album, deeper than others. PSB love them. Full of good songs but not from a commercial perspective, you know what I mean.

I'm honestly not in the business of kneejerk challenging your quite nebulous posts, but in press releases and advance publicity they (and many, many other artists) say this pretty much every single time. When Nightlife was announced I remember Neil saying something along the lines of "If it wasn't such a cliche, I'd say it's our best album." I'm delighted that they're proud of it though.

I remember this pic with the headphone for hotspot where Neil say he's satisfied of the album. The same way i remember he said it after fundamental. I always imagine Neil putting off his headset on a table satisfied: "the job is over".

Could they move the release date ahead two weeks?

She’ll probably just release another SURPRISE!!!album that week as well.
